Chapter 502.1: Unlucky or Reaping What One Sow
“Nothing, just feel, really impressive.” Such an excellent quality perfect man, she seemingly profited.
Li Hong Yuan raised his brow and smiled, “What’s impressive?”
Wasn’t this just asking while knowing the answer already? Even needing her to directly say it? This actually isn’t the problem of being shameless, but rather just in love with oneself?
“In love with oneself?” Li Hong Yuan slightly pondered for a moment, “No, this husband just wants to be in love with Wan Wan.”
This was getting smacked in the face with sweet words again? A certain someone’s skill in love talk was already maxed out to begin with, and right now, this was about to breakthrough the horizon? At anywhere and anytime, any conversation was all able to turn towards this. However, Jing Wan believed that right now she was already able to completely remain composed. But, just now, she seemingly unconsciously had her thoughts said out loud. This bit was unacceptable.
Li Hong Yuan, seeing Jing Wan very gracefully and seriously eating, soundlessly laughed. His wife’s way of acting bashful really was quite unique. However, a certain someone didn’t point out either, else his wife will fly into a rage out of embarrassment. In the end, she has worked hard all day, so although he quite liked seeing her explode like an angered cat, as a qualifying husband, he should also have propriety. Thus, he also nonchalantly began eating. In a certain sense, their movements right now can be considered the model of etiquette.
Because the two of them were ‘idly chatting’, this meal lasted much longer than usual.
It wasn’t until they finished did Jing Wan finally recall a question, and that was just why didn’t things like the wound sewing technique appear? After all, those things weren’t that complicated, just needing to know the overall process. Based on Jin Qinwang’s power and status, as long as he had a bit of memory, he just needed one line, having the order passed down, and the people below certainly will be able to figure it out.
“I don’t have memories in this area. When fighting with the various countries, reasonably speaking, these things that are beneficial, especially even put forward by you, it’s impossible for me to not use. Can only say that the people that knew these things also all died in that battle, and even the things they left behind all got destroyed by someone.” Li Hong Yuan indifferently said.
Jing Wan fell silent, and afterwards, somewhat forcibly smiled, “Perhaps it never existed from the start?”
“Wan Wan, these words, do you really believe?” Li Hong Yuan was unusually calm.
“During the day, I ran into the northeast army’s military doctor. Because of that old doctor, some things carried out very smoothly. I originally was already prepared to fight a ‘long battle’ with them, letting them accept little by little. According to you, in your past life, the entire northeast army perished in the previous war. Although the various tribes of Zhennu Mountain in the end also suffered, it’s still worlds apart from the current situation. The old doctor and them perhaps had died in that battle, so it would’ve been impossible for them to come aid the northwest army. That’s why………….”
TN: All
Li Hong Yuan softly laughed, his laughter carrying a bit of mockery, “Wan Wan also learned to deceive oneself?”
Alright, probably a little. Jing Wan sighed, but a moment later, she was full of fighting spirit again, “It’s still the present that’s the most important. Some things must be established now and continue developing from here on out.” The things that the other her wasn’t able to help him do, she will now do.
Seeing her like this, Li Hong Yuan couldn’t help but smile. All his hard work, wasn’t it precisely for her sake. For her to be able to be this ‘enthusiastic’, it was also more than enough.
The days afterwards, Li Hong Yuan and Jing Wan were separately busy with their own matters. However, on the surface, it seemed as if it was just Jing Wan that was busy, while Jin Qinwang was that ‘watching with folded arms, idle to the point of molding’ person, even causing trouble from time to time. Those young ladies that came in contact with Jing Wan in the beginning, having already obtained their family’s approval, becoming Jing Wan’s support, when first meeting Li Hong Yuan, perhaps would even blush, somewhat sprouting amorous feelings, but after learning his ‘true face’, they just began disdaining in all kinds of ways, even being outraged by the injustice for Jing Wan. Someone like her Highness wangfei that was good everywhere, how come just married such a useless person?! It must be the imperial family using their power to pressure, thus her Highness had no choice but to marry!
These words, for a time, even got muttered before Jing Wan.
Jing Wan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when she heard, later just using these words to go tease a certain someone. Unfortunately, a certain someone was completely unconcerned, willingly choosing to be a flower vase.
Then again, if a certain someone cared about these, then he wouldn’t have specially made up that many unpleasant reputations.
However, this flower vase, on the surface, appeared as if porcelain, but the inside was nevertheless comparable to diamond. That’s why, only the people that understood his true nature would know, he wasn’t just pretty on the outside.
The ones that had complaints towards Jin Qinwang, how was it just those young ladies. Of the people that came in contact with Jing Wan, ninety-nine percent of them all had complaints, just they didn’t dare to say it. However, every time seeing Jing Wan and Jin Qinwang together, they would all unconsciously shake their head, inwardly sighing, such a shame, such a shame.
For the people below Li Hong Yuan, their expression and feelings were all quite peculiar. Although in the capital, their master already got said as having no good points aside from a good face, but they’ve never personally experienced before. Right now, that was being able to sense their own master getting disdained in all kinds of ways at all times. It practically couldn’t be more obvious.
Each and every one of them all lowered their heads, pretending to be deaf and mute, lamenting inside, these people really were ‘ignorant thus fearless’, doing something that all the nobles and high officials of the capital all didn’t dare to do. And if the people of the capital were to see this scene, their jaws would probably drop too. However, the most shocking was probably still the living Enma’s indifference.
That’s why, the misunderstandings here really were a bit big. Everyone in the capital all feared Jin Qinwang, strategically withdrawing before him. If not an absolutely safe place, they probably won’t dare to say a single bad word about him, so naturally there was no way of knowing. And towards these, the living Enma actually didn’t care at all. However, any sane person probably all won’t say ‘bad words’ before someone they incomparably feared. That’s why, even if knowing, they similarly won’t dare.
Moreover, the living Enma never had these normal people taken seriously, and towards those that had status and rank, he might even ‘give face’. Just like for immortal deities, towards ants, they’ve always felt it was beneath them to acknowledge, but towards those that had the same status as them or perhaps a bit lower, offending them, they still had quite the interest in teaching the other party how to behave. However, for Li Hong Yuan, those that had the same status as him, their strength was nevertheless not on the same level. His greatest interest was probably still wrestling with that one pressing above him.
Jing Wan’s tolerance towards Li Hong Yuan right now was also increasingly high. Even if he occasionally caused trouble, at most it was just having him kicked out, and then continuing on with what she was doing.
Just, for those high ranking officers in the army, even if Fu Yun Ting already said that Jin Qinwang was harmless, they still couldn’t relax, even paying attention to Jin Qinwang’s situation from time to time.
And the news they received made their expression exceptionally strange too.
However, they still silently had the matter placed aside. After all, the things Jin Wangfei was doing right now was seemingly beneficial towards them. Those injured people were once soldiers under them after all. To say they weren’t heartbroken in the slightest, that was a lie. Even if in the future, they can’t fight together once more, being able to receive good care still greatly comforted the heart.
However, this kind of thought finally changed when the first batch of injured soldiers returned to the frontlines in good condition. One has to know, based on their shared understanding, those that got sent to the back, if not on the verge of death, then it was just about to be dismissed back home. Those minor injuries that didn’t prevent them from going on to the battlefield, for the most part, were all treated on their own.
But now, they actually had people return, full of energy, so how could they not be shocked.
And after being shocked, they naturally wanted to go personally see for themselves. After all, previously, it was just hearing, and those things that they heard, for the most part, all made them puzzled.
